Pain creeping into your round?
Golf looks low impact, but the swing generates enormous rotational force through the spine, hips, and wrists, repeated hundreds of times a session. Over time that load finds the weak link, and a niggle becomes an injury that ruins your golf.
Common issues we see in golf athletes:
- Lower back pain that builds over a round or the day after
- Golfer's elbow on the inside of the lead or trail arm
- Lead wrist pain from impact and the top of the backswing
- Hip and groin tightness that limits your turn and rotation
- Shoulder pain reaching the top of the backswing or follow-through
- Loss of distance from restricted rotation or a protective swing
What we treat
Golf injuries we treat
We understand the specific demands of the sport and treat the injuries that come with it, including:
Golfer's and tennis elbow
Tendon pain on the inside or outside of the elbow from gripping and impact.
Lower back pain
The most common golf injury, from repeated rotation and side-bending.
Lead wrist pain
Wrist and thumb-side pain from impact and high swing volume.
Hip and groin issues
Restricted hip rotation that limits the turn and overloads the back.
Shoulder pain
Rotator cuff and shoulder pain through the backswing and follow-through.
Rib and trunk strains
Less common but seen with high-volume practice and swing changes.
Play better, longer
More distance, fewer injuries
Treating the injury is only half the job. We assess how your body moves through the swing, find the restrictions and weak links, and build the rotation and strength that protect you and add speed.
Rotation and mobility
We free up the hips and thoracic spine so you rotate from the right places, not your lower back.
Strength and speed
Targeted strength work that protects the back and can add clubhead speed.
Return to play
A graded return to practice and full rounds so the injury does not come straight back.

Questions? We have got answers
What is the most common golf injury?
Lower back pain is the most common, from the repeated rotation and side-bending of the swing. Golfer's elbow and lead wrist pain are also very common. All respond well to the right physio and load management.
Can physio help me hit the ball further?
Often yes. Restricted hip and thoracic rotation forces you to compensate and lose power. Freeing up that rotation and building strength can improve both how you feel and your clubhead speed.
Do I have to stop playing?
Usually not entirely. We typically modify your practice volume and which shots you hit while we treat the injury, rather than stopping golf completely.
Do I need a referral?
No referral needed. You can book directly. We also accept Simplyhealth and Medicash cash plans.
What are your prices?
A new patient assessment is £75 for 45 minutes, including a full assessment, hands-on treatment, and a clear plan.
